May 16th.

Hi,

World Leader Pretend

I sit at my table and wage war on myself
It seems like it’s all...it’s all for nothing
I know the barricades, and
I know the mortar in the wall breaks
I recognize the weapons, I used them well

This is my mistake. Let me make it good
I raised the wall, and I will be the one to knock it down

I’ve a rich understanding of my finest defenses
I proclaim that claims are left unstated,
I demand a rematch
I decree a stalemate
I divine my deeper motives
I recognize the weapons
I’ve practiced them well. I fitted them myself

REM, 1988

More or less how I feel these days. REM managed to type this feeling and put on a vinyl/CD about 18 years ago.
My personal life could not be better, but financial and carreer...well that really could be better. Anyway as the lyric says...I built the wall and I am the one to knock it down.
Back to breaking down the wall.
